520 _aA history of Grand Traverse County, Michigan libraries, beginning with an early Traverse Township Library and a Ladies' Library Association established in 1869. Emphasis is on community support of its libraries through 140 years and how libraries continued engaging the public and remaining an integral part of the community. More recently local libraries needed to reinvent themselves to provide services during the pandemic. Includes historic photographs and local Traverse City history. An additional feature is an essay, The Living Library, by Hank Bailey, a tribal member of the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians.
